Hello everyone,
In the hopes of making this forum more organized, Pemberly and I have come up with some new rules. I hope that you guys will take the time to read them and follow them.
1. Please make sure that a thread for your actor doesn't already exist. It helps prevent filling up the forum with the same threads on the same person. Questions pertaining to a specific actor may be asked in the corresponding thread. If you create a new thread on an actor that is not in the index, please pm the mods so we can put it in the index.
2. From now on, there will be only one thread on actors in general. In the past, there have been too many threads on popularity of actors. I'm hoping that those can be placed into one. I'll be closing the current one soon, due to the page limit, and I will start a new one; please hold all ratings there.
3. As with all forums, please refrain from spamming and personal attacks. Criticism of an actor is allowed, but please refrain from making derogatory remarks that intentionally insult members. Joking comments are not included.
4. Please refrain from drawing the discussion TOO off-topic. I understand it will happen, and that's ok. I know that I'm at fault for doing that too, especially in the Alec thread where we sometimes talk of subjects not pertaining to him at all. Just try to draw all conversations back to the topic.
5. Pictures are welcomed. Very welcomed. But please understand that some users have slower connections (me included), therefore, try to refrain from posting a large amount of pictures. Attaching and linking may be a bit for hassle for the viewer, but it will keep threads clean and fast loading.
6. Please respect copyrights! Always give credit when posting articles and pictures. There are certain sites that only allow pictures to be posted when specific permission is given. I know www.alecfanclub.net is one of them. Please follow those rules, or else just provide links and directions to the pictures. I hope that in the future, I will not receive any more notices from webmasters about "stolen" pictures.
Thanks everyone for their cooperation!

Other Communities
AGAPE: A residential settlement established in Liberty, DeKalb County, Tennessee, in 1972 by members of the Russian Orthodox faith. The community prefers primitive living conditions and a diet and daily life conditioned by the discipline of the church. Members operate a small religious press and publish a bimonthly magazine, Living Orthodoxy.
AMISH AND MENNONITE COMMUNITIES: These communities consist of Anabaptists who have set themselves apart from modernized society for religious reasons. Among the many Amish and Mennonite communities scattered throughout Tennessee are three Old Order Amish settlements: one in Lawrence County (est. 1944), one in Carroll County (est. 1975), and a third in Hickman County (est. 1982). There are also several Tennessee communities classified as Beechy Amish or Mennonite Fellowship: four in Paris (est. 1971, 1985, 1986, and 1992), and others in Crossville (est. 1970), Perry County (est. in the 1970s), Whiteville (est. 1977), Monterey (est. in the 1980s), Belvidere (est. 1986), and China Grove (est. 1996).
The Amish are often referred to as the "plain people" because the Amish way of life is a simple one. Most groups do not approve of electricity, automobiles, bodily or household adornments, mirrors, or photographs. A peace-loving people, the Amish do not allow their members to join the military. They refuse government assistance and Social Security, and they see no need for insurance, since the entire community comes together to help anyone in trouble. The Amish place little emphasis on education, and few of their children attend school beyond the eighth grade.
DUNMIRE HOLLOW COMMUNITY: A community established in 1973, its members live on 163 acres of orchards, gardens, woods, springs, and creeks, with a woodshop, a sauna, a food co-op, and family houses. Dunmire Hollow is located in Waynesboro, Wayne County, Tennessee.
HARRIMAN: This Utopian community was built on principles of social temperance during the period when the Great Land Sale of 1890 brought thousands to settle the area in Roane County. It was organized by Frederick Gates, a former Methodist minister and founder of the East Tennessee Land Company.
IDA: This all-purpose queer/gay arts community was established in 1993 on 250 acres in the backwoods of Dowelltown, DeKalb County, Tennessee. Residents describe it as an ever-changing community trying to create an alternative to "consumerist, corporate-controlled spirit-numbing culture."
JUMP-OFF COMMUNITY LAND TRUST: This community was formed in 1990 and established in 1992 with the aim of promoting and encouraging environmental awareness by maintaining the land for wilderness, educational, and homestead uses. Members live on 30 cleared acres of a 1,110-acre property in Sewanee, Franklin County, Tennessee; the balance of the property is woodland that has been protected for over 55 years.
MOONSHADOW-SEQUATCHIE VALLEY INSTITUTE: Set within 300 acres in an Appalachian valley, Moonshadow lies on the side of a forested mountain in Whitwell, Marion County, Tennessee. The community was established in 1971 as a small eco-village committed to exploring the practicality of sustainable agriculture. The mission of Sequatchie Valley Institute is to offer society an opportunity to experience and learn by providing education, art research opportunities, and land conservation and restoration skills through a model residence and learning center.
PUMPKIN HOLLOW: This community is set on 120 acres of rustic and remote land in Liberty, DeKalb County, Tennessee, which was obtained in November 1996 with the intention of maintaining a rural residential community practicing sustainable agriculture, ecological living, art, and education. Members use an old barn as residence, recording studio, library, and the Fifth Estate book store. They believe in radical activism and practice earth-bound spirituality in carnivalesque festivals.
ROSE CREEK VILLAGE: Situated on 100 acres in Selmer, McNairy County, Tennessee, this religion-based intentional community of about 200 members formed in 1989 (established in 1996) from a core of 17 families moving from Geneva, Florida, to Bethel Springs, Tennessee. Offering Rose Creek Village midwifery and childbirth services, the community also supports five other businesses: commercial and residential painting, construction, Solar Tint installation, a restaurant (Another Realm), and a distribution center offering office and warehouse services. Derived from the "Twelve Tribes Communities," members express beliefs centered around God and a desire simply to be the people of Jesus Christ.
SHORT MOUNTAIN SANCTUARY: This collective provides "queer safe space" for rural gay men. Formed in 1979 and established in 1980, it is the first and longest-running radical faerie commune. Residents grow most of the food and herbs, and also raise goats for milk and chickens for eggs. The community publishes a newspaper, RFD: A Country Journal for Queer Folk Everywhere, and hosts two annual ten-day faerie gatherings, in May and October. Short Mountain Sanctuary is located in Liberty, DeKalb County, Tennessee.

Now that the academic year is starting, the Star-Tribune puts out a short summary of success at Minnesota colleges. We'll use it next year to recruit more students.
The University of Minnesota, Morris stands out among the state's public four-year institutions for generating more grads than expected at a good price. UM-Morris Chancellor Jacquie Johnson attributes that result to a tight-knit, supportive campus culture that allows the nearly 1,800 students to build strong relationships with faculty. One of every three students at Morris is either minority or international in origin. The school's success with that diverse student population warrants examination and imitation.
Yay, us!

DWTS Season 14 Rumors and Innuendo – And Twitter Nonsense
This post is a Heidi/Courtney/Vogue collaboration…
As many of you have noticed – the DWTS rumor mill is pretty darn slow these days. No big media outlets reporting legit casting rumors, no glaring Twitter slip-ups by potential candidates, just…vagueness & silence. Which of course makes our job here at PureDWTS a bit harder 🙂 However, we do keep a pretty vigilant eye on what's happening on Twitter, and there have been a handful of tweets that have caught our eye as possibly being something legit (and some that are obviously joking, but funny enough to mention ;-)), so we thought we'd go ahead and share – but take these with a BIIIIIG grain of salt, kids. We're reaching here 🙂
Heidi: First up, we have yet another NFL player that someone is claiming to be on DWTS this season – Jeremiah "The Axe Man" Trotter. I found this in my random perusal of various twitter searches. I have no idea if the person claiming he heard Jeremiah is even remotely serious or remotely connected – but Jeremiah's non-denial is interesting, plus I remember how I didn't blog about knowing that a Steeler was going to dance. A month before the announcement. 🙂 ETA: The tweet I posted a bit ago about Vince Young, also from the Eagles, makes this one seem like the person with the info got the wrong player. Hard to say.
Next up, an tweet from Kirstie Alley to Lisa Marie yesterday that got some eyebrows raising:
Courtney: Admittedly, this is EXTRAORDINARILY vague. Kirstie could just be trying to coax Lisa Marie into participating in her "100 Days of Dance" event, or she could be just using it in the figurative sense, as in "Yay! You're another year older! Do some sort of celebratory dance!!!" However, some interpreted it as "Get ready to hoof it on DWTS soon!" Could Lisa Marie be signed up for season 14? Who knows…but her mom did the show in season 6, and doing the show might help Lisa Marie spread the word about several charities she's involved with. However, according to Wikipedia, she currently lives in London – so who knows. Food for thought. 🙂 I think she'd be a great addition to the show – she seems to shun the spotlight, but she looks FANTASTIC for her age and seems to be in good shape.
Vogue: Here's Lisa Marie in her "Idiot" video "shaking it". What do you think? Would she be able to dance? Hmmm…she definitely has the beats down like her Dad though nothing "Hound Dog" unique, but, would she be able to memorize elaborate dance numbers? She may have trouble like her Mom, but, I can see her paired with Maks! 🙂
Courtney: Now we move onto actress Wendy Robinson, who tweets some things that could be exciting out-of-context…
But upon further examination, it's obviously just wishful thinking:
But I must say – Wendy does look quite fetching in green fringe!
Courtney: On the campaign front, it looks like the latest celeb to have fans gunning for them to do the show is actress Jackée Harry:
If memory serves, I think Jackée has been a rumor before…or maybe a campaign. IDK. Too much going on in my head 🙂 Either way, she's funny…I think she'd be kinda like Niecy. In fact, I think she's actually friends with Niecy.
And in the category of "purely joking", we have Darrell Sheets from the A&E series Storage Wars no doubt giving a costar a hard time:
Courtney: For those of you unfamiliar with the show, Storage Wars is a reality show where they take self-storage units that are delinquent on their rent and auction off the contents to the highest bidder as a single lot. Sometimes you get valuable antiques and priceless artifacts; sometimes you get junk. Darrell & Barry (Weiss) are two of the people who bid on these units – and the reason I find this tweet so funny is that this is Barry:
Vogue: I can't see it. I just can't.
Courtney: If Reuben from Ocean's Eleven had a drunken love child with Charlie Sheen's character from Two & A Half Men, it would be Barry Weiss (whose name makes me want a beer).
And just breaking, we have this gem from Taylor Armstrong of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills:
[blackbirdpie url="http://twitter.com/#!/TaylorArmstrong/status/165189617186897920″]
Courtney: Can we say "desperate for attention"? Sorry, but Taylor's totally fishing here – she's name-dropping a pro (a pro that's too short for her, no less), acting like they're bff (ok…I must've missed something…I didn't think she & LVA even ran in the same circles), and doing it less than a month before the cast announcement when she's already been rumored as a contestant. Whether or not she's actually been asked remains to be seen, but judging from the constant reports I've been hearing that she's flat broke and terrified that she's not going to be asked back for season 3 of RHOBH (a legit concern, as I hear they're already looking for some new housewives), the woman sounds desperate with a captial D – so you best believe that if she gets asked, she's doing it. I hope Tony's got a therapist on standby…
Vogue: Then there is Sam Champion…yes, Sam strikes again! Check out this little 'retweet' Sam made this morning. Why would he retweet this if he wasn't dancing on Dancing With The Stars Season 14? This guy is going to give us serious heart palpitations with all of this TEASING!! With the added anticipation of Madonna dancing in the Super Bowl, I'm dying here. 😯 Bring it Sam or ELSE!
RT @Cyn90: U wonder why those #DancingwiththeStars rumors fly when u show that smooth sway move @SamChampion? ( WE'll FIND OUT SOON!

The History SanDisk
12 years after its inception the company was joined by the Toshiba Corporation in researching new types of semiconductor for the digital camera market.
The Mobile Phone Boom
Around 2003 to 2004, the mobile phone industry was going through a major boom time and Sandisk were a major part of the expansion. As the capabilities of mobile devices increased, their need for expanded memory became ever greater. From memory cards able to store just a few hundred megabytes at the beginning, the technology advanced to such a degree that in a few short years, they were able to cram in 10s or even 100s of Gigabytes into the same space.
Over the next few years, Sandisk made a number of acquisitions which strengthened their hand in the semiconductor market. From 2005 to 2014, the company acquired:
- Matrix Semiconductor
- M-Systems
- Pilant Technology (a manufacturer of SSD technology)
- FlashSoft
- Schooner Information Technology (Developer of Membrain and SchoonerSQL)
- SMART Storage Systems (SSD manufacturers for the enterprise market)
- Fusion-io (producers of flash memory used in Enterprise level data centres)
These acquisitions were made at considerable cost to Sandisk, with the total amount in the region of $5bn, but it placed the company well in the market to make even greater strides in the global permanent and flash storage markets.
Since 2014, Sandisk continued to innovate and launched a number of technological firsts, like the Ultra microSDXC memory card, with a staggering 128 Gigabytes of storage contained within. Around the same time, the company launched the Extreme PRO SDXC, which was the highest capacity SD memory card in existence.
Western Digital Acquisition
Fast forward to 2016 and just a few months after Sandisk launched its 'InfiniFlash' technology (an entire new category of 'all-flash' storage system) and it entered the high end SSD market, the company was bought out by Western Digital, one of the largest HDD manufacturers in the world for a massive $19bn.
Since 2005, Sandisk is said to have sold over 2 Billion microSD memory cards around the world, illustrating just how large scale its operation is. The company still operates in the same way under the umbrella of Western Digital, who supports in the subsidiary's efforts to continue to this day, to innovate in the field of memory hardware.

ready for Christmas
It's become tradition for us to bring out the Christmas decorations the day after
Thanksgiving. We hang lights and garland while music plays in the background and we
drink our weight in eggnog and even pack up some of our normal things to make room
for the holiday stuff. Then, about a week into December we go pick out
and tree and lug it home.
This year though, we decided to save money on a large tree and bought this small
Norfolk living tree, which should last us much longer than a normal pine anyway.
It's only big enough to hold a few ornaments but we made sure to hang two of
Israel's, one from last year and little a wool mouse that we found this morning.
These spice cookies got us in a festive mood, they were amazingly light and airy,
like a French macaroon but with spice cake and chocolate bottoms.
The house feels so warm and happy now, I think I'm almost done. In a couple more
weeks, I'll start some baking, and that's where it gets dangerous!

TORONTO - A new poll suggests support for maintaining ties to the monarchy is on the rise in Canada, with only Quebec bucking a trend that may be partly driven by the star power of William and Kate and the Conservative government's cultural policy.
"It does seem things are, on this question, becoming more polarized between Quebec and the rest of Canada," said Harris-Decima consultant Robert Hughes.
It is a Canadian Press Harris-Decima survey conducted between May 17 and May 20 that indicates a rise in support for Canada's royal connection. The poll was conducted just before Prince Charles and Camilla made a whirlwind visit to the country.
Those surveyed were asked whether they thought the monarchy is an important part of Canadian history and political culture that ought to be maintained or if it is a relic of our colonial past that has no place in the Canada of today.
Overall, the poll indicated some 51 per cent of Canucks want to maintain Canada's links to the monarchy.
That is a six percentage point increase, up from 45 per cent of the population in support of keeping the Queen as head of state, when the survey's results are compared to a similar poll conducted in 2009. The increase is mostly seen among those over the age of 35.
In Quebec, however, just 24 per cent of respondents say the monarchy is an important part of Canadian history, a figure that's actually down six percentage points from the previous poll.
But the royals have increased in popularity in all other parts of the country, the poll indicates.
One possible reason for that increase in English Canada is likely the incredibly popular Canadian visit of Prince William and his wife Kate last summer — the first international trip the couple made after being wed.
"That's probably given people a more positive view of the monarchy in general Canada," said Hughes. "They're younger, they're more photogenic, more popular...I think when they do come there's a bigger star power."
Another element driving support for the monarchy could be the federal Conservative government's efforts to highlight the country's long-standing links to the monarchy, said Hughes.
"There's been a shift in the way the Harper government has been approaching the monarchy, it's become part of their cultural policy," he said. "People have gotten on board with that."
As part of its efforts to strengthen ties to the monarchy, the Harper government restored the word "royal" to divisions of the Canadian military.
Ottawa has also pledged $7.5 million to help fund months of activities across the country this year commemorating the Queen's sixty years on the throne.
When looking at the political leanings of the survey's participants, the poll found 66 per cent of Conservative supporters surveyed were in favour of the monarchy in Canada, compared to 55 per cent of Liberal supporters and 44 per cent of NDP supporters questioned.
Meanwhile, 75 per cent of Bloc Quebecois supporters polled feel the monarchy has no place in Canada today.
The lack of support for the monarchy in Quebec could have less to do with geography and more to do with politics, said Hughes.
"It likely has something to do with the fact that the Conservative party seems to be supporting the monarchy more, and they're less popular in Quebec than they have been," he said.
The telephone survey by Harris Decima of just over 1,000 people has a margin of error of 3.1 percentage points, 19 times out of 20.
The results of the poll come as no surprise to the Monarchist League of Canada.
"The numbers would be consistent with what we tend to see," said Dominion Chairman Robert Finch. "The majority of Canadians support the monarchy and support for the monarchy in every region except for Quebec is overwhelmingly positive."
Given what he called years of separatist parties decrying the country's ties to the monarchy in Quebec, Finch said the low support for the Crown in the Francophone province continues a historical trend.
"I'm thankful there's any support for the monarchy in Quebec," he said. "It's always an opportunity for us to reach out and make sure that Quebecers understand that the monarchy is there for them."
The Queen's Diamond Jubilee — which will culminates a lavish ceremony in London on the anniversary of the coronation next month — should also be noted as a key factor driving interest in the monarchy this year, said Finch.
"We're celebrating the remarkable reign of a remarkable woman," he said. "It's no coincidence that Canadians start to rally around the monarch in the news."

Regal romp: Queen brings down the house
If Queen Latifah got an Oscar nomination for her minor role in Chicago, she deserves sainthood for what she does in Bringing down the House. This is an extraordinary entertainer whose singing styles include rap, jazz, and ballad standards and whose acting has an equal range.
Steve Martin took on the race thing in his first starring movie, The Jerk, and returns to it 24 years later to show we can still all laugh together, even if problems sometimes start when the laughter stops. Fortunately the laughter doesn't stop often in Bringing Down the House.
This comedy, as comedies will, uses a lot of stereotypes to make the point that you shouldn't expect everyone to conform to them. You may be expecting an "opposites attract" love story between the two stars, and there are moments when the movie appears headed in that direction, but it's actually more of a buddy comedy where two dissimilar people are changed for the better by the time they spend together.
Jason Filardi's script takes the approach that with good enough actors an audience will accept anything, so he starts with an improbable premise, piles on absurd complications, and sidesteps facts and logic when they get in his way. The result is sillier than it needs to be, but seems almost intelligent compared to most recent comedies, and the cast is good enough to make us take whatever they dish out.
At work, tax attorney Peter Sanderson (Martin) is fighting an annoyingly ambitious youngster (Michael Rosenbaum) to land a big account, Virginia Arness (Joan Plowright), who is described as "conservative... paranoid and suspicious." Peter's also about to have his first date with a woman he hooked up with in a chat room.
Charlene Morton (Latifah) isn't quite the blonde Caucasian attorney Peter was expecting, although she learned quite a bit about the law while spending the last four years in prison and can toss off phrases like "exculpatory evidence" as easily as ghetto slang. She wants Peter to get her case reopened and prove she was innocent of the armed robbery charge that led to her conviction.
He tries to get rid of her, but Charlene essentially blackmails him until she ends up posing as nanny to his children while their mother, Kate (Jean Smart), is vacationing with a young golf instructor. Peter's devotion to his work led to their divorce which, despite initial appearances, isn't working for either of them. The kids, 15-year-old Sarah (Kimberly J. Brown) and eight-year-old Georgey (Angus T. Jones) have problems too, but nothing living with a convict for a few days can't fix. If this ever becomes a series, they can call it Touched by a Hoochie Mama.
While Peter isn't a serious romantic prospect for Charlene, a colleague of his, Howie Rottman (Eugene Levy) may be. He's smitten with his first look at this "cocoa goddess," and she may be more than just amused by how "freaky" he is.
Missi Pyle plays Ashley, Kate's best friend and therefore Peter's worst enemy. When she and Charlene get into it, cat fight fans will be transported back to the golden days of Joan Collins and Linda Evans duking it out on Dynasty, although the use of stunt doubles has rarely been more obvious.
Martin hardly threatens to make Eminem expand his act to Emineminem but he does that Steve Martin thing better than anyone else, and Latifah proves that a big woman can be funny and sexy at the same time. Together they'll keep you laughing too much to care how many IQ points you drop in the course of the movie.

Facebook launches organ donor campaign
Facebook wants to help you share your organs.
CEO Mark Zuckerberg says U.S. and U.K. users will be able to enroll as organ donors via links on the world's biggest social networking site.
Facebook users who are already organ donors can add that information to their Facebook Timelines.
Zuckerberg says his friendship with Apple Inc. co-founder Steve Jobs, who had received a liver transplant before he died last year, helped spur the idea.
Zuckerberg announced the organ donor update to Facebook on "Good Morning America" Tuesday.
Facebook Inc., based in Menlo Park, Calif., is busy readying an initial public stock offering said to be pegged at $5 billion.
Facebook's IPO could place the company's value at $100 billion.

"(Provo, Utah) – November 18, 2013 – Ancestry.com, the world's largest online family history resource, is proud to announce a collaboration with the Associated Press that makes fifty years of news stories–in their original wire copy format–available online today.
"'We are thrilled to announce this collaboration with the Associated Press to bring its name and subject catalog online," said Quinton Atkinson, Director of Content Acquisition for Ancestry.com. "It represents a fantastic set of material for our family historians who are researching the news of an era, and gives incredible historical context for the world their ancestors lived in'
"A vailable at Ancestry.com/AP, the voluminous card catalog of names and subjects links to more than two million records and more than one million AP stories spanning 1937 to 1985, a resource which took Ancestry.com several years to prepare and digitize.
"For Ancestry.com subscribers, the collection of AP stories adds a whole new dimension to the family history experience. Stories complement family trees and genealogical records on Ancestry.com with period news coverage that provides historical context to the times, places and people Ancestry members are researching. Ancestry.com members will be able to search for stories by name, and then click through to view a digitized copy of the full AP story. Stories can also be searched by subject and by date.
"The digitization of the AP stories will simplify the research process not only for Ancestry.com members, but also for AP journalists. Reporters and news researchers can now bypass the legacy card catalog and accompanying microfilm for a searchable set of online databases that can be accessed anywhere in the world. In addition, the project has made available a set of internal AP publications dating back to 1904, including the staff magazine AP World, which began publication in 1943.
"'The collaboration with Ancestry.com has enabled us to bring AP's historical news microfilm and its card index not only to the family history community but also to AP journalists, who value their organization's rich archival record," said Valerie Komor, Director of the AP Corporate Archives. "And AP World offers a rare view into the workings of this 167-year-old news cooperative. '
"For those wishing to search the AP archives on Ancestry.com, they may do so by visiting Ancestry.com/AP. "
If you want to find the database on your own, from the Ancestry home page click on the "search" tab and then select "card catalog" from the dropdown menu. Enter "AP" in the title box and you should get it. Also, this database is available whether you have a personal subscription to Ancestry.com or whether you are using the Library Edition.

ok tempestuous now we have to make it so that some thing like this free app can be used on the wifi
here is the plane that it flys
for now just something that responds via wifi from puppy is the goal not necessarily a flying thing, some thing simple like an off /on switch on an appliance would be an achievement.

That's interesting, but it bears no relevance to wifi hotspots.

Well "interaction" can mean many things. In terms of communication method, that's easy; it's ad-hoc wifi, as explained here -
And ad-hoc wifi is quite easy in Linux, howto here -
But in terms of porting the AR.FreeFlight application to Linux, wow, that would take some effort, especially in terms of reading all the motion and camera data, then displaying it on the Linux X server.

What about just keeping a focus on how people can communicate in case the internet is shit down by our great leaders?
This is a aspect no one really discuss here.
So I am back to my Joomla stuff again. If internet is shut down. Can one somehow use such a technology as discussed here to build local Wifi net in cities etc?
Any views on this?
The thing is... If this Hostap was integrated so that a maximum number of cards and technologies was covered(maybe a multiboot CD with the 3 linux Wifi drivers represented) and it was set up as a system where you SPREAD the technology, so that people can log on to your APs server and download Puppy with the HostAP, so that they can "extend" the range of the network? In such a Puppy the Joomla(or any other technology) could have a lot of "howto's) on WifFi antennas and tricks to extend the range of your Wifi etc.
Call it "WarPup" or whatever:-)

How about making a "proof of concept" Live CD, whereas the objective is to be able to boot from a live CD and your Wlan turns into a AP and the content is
Anyone in for that? I can try to make the Puppy wished for by the one that can do the teckie stuff related to Wlan decides, and have a LHMP enabled Puppy XXX tanked up with LHMP and the RapNews content. They are scheduled to release a new broadcast this week about Kony 2012 and they have a large group of fans that would love such a item to broadcast locally at their school or neighborhood.
Just as a proof of concept if one could make "instant broadcast Puppy"

Subject description: for transfer to french forum
i) Installez les pets hostapd et bridge-utils.
ii) Installez aussi un des pets madwifi si vous avez un Atheros AR512x wifi device (PCI or PCMCIA), et rebootez.
Définissez :
- Comment allez-vous appeler votre point d'accès - ce sera le SSID.
- si vous voulez un cryptage WPA or WPA2 , ou pas de cryptage.
- Si Cryptage, quelle passphrase. Il vous faudra convertir l'ASCII passphrase choisie dans sa valeur hexadécimale 64 digit avec la commande -
wpa_passphrase <ssid> <passphrase>
Tous ces paramètres doivent être enregistrés dans /etc/hostapd.conf
J'ai pre-configuré un SSID "Puppy_Hotspot", avec WPA2 encryption, avec la PSK passphrase "woof1234".
Vous n'aurez rien à changer si vous utilisez ma configuration
Regardez toutefois /etc/hostapd.conf dans Geany juste pour voir de quoi je parle. J'ai commenté le PSK password (woof1234) et utilisé la valeur hexadécimale de la passphrase, calculée comme expliqué plus haut.
Notez la valeur de WPA2 encryption: "wpa_pairwise=CCMP"
Pour utiliser la vieille valeur WPA encryption, tapez : "wpa_pairwise=TKIP"
Si vous ne voulez pas de cryptage, tapez "wpa=0"
For the hostap_pci/hostap_cs drivers, changez "interface=ath0" en "interface=wlan0", et changez "driver=madwifi" en "driver=hostap", et changez "hw_mode=g" en "hw_mode=b".
Connectez maintenant votre ethernet interface to some form of modem/router. Ce sera la internet connection que vous partagerez via votre wifi interface.
Si vous aviez configuré votre ethernet interface avec Puppy's Network Wizard, il faut éliminer la configuration :
ifconfig eth0 down
Vous devez éliminer le dhcpcd daemon - TRES IMPORTANT.
Dans le Menu > System > System Status and Config > Pprocess process manager, vous devriez trouver "dhcpcd -d -l eth0"
Selectionnez-le, et cliquez "End process"
Otez le fichier stale dhcpcd run avec cette commande -
rm -f /var/run/dhcpcd-eth0.*
Changez votremode wifi driver "Station/Managed" mode en "AP/Master" mode -
ifconfig ath0 down
wlanconfig ath0 destroy
wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode ap
Pour les hostap_pci/hostap_cs drivers, faire
ifconfig wlan0 down
iwconfig wlan0 mode Master
Ensuite bridgez your ethernet interface sur votre wifi interface :
ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 up
ifconfig ath0 0.0.0.0 up
modprobe bridge
brctl addbr br0
brctl addif br0 eth0
brctl addif br0 ath0
Pour les hostap_pci/hostap_cs drivers, changez "ath0" en "wlan0".
Votre Puppy computer est reconnu sur le LAN par sa bridged interface: br0.
En theory donner une IP address à votre Puppy computer pour sa bridged interface n'est pas obligé mais en practique c'est essentiel. Faites ceci :
rm -f /var/run/dhcpcd-br0.*
dhcpcd -t 30 -h puppypc -d br0
I found that this may take 15 seconds or so! dhcpcd seems to struggle with a "br0" interface.
Various code will run by, and eventually you should see "...forking to background".
Vous voilà prêts à lancer le hostapd daemon
hostapd /etc/hostapd.conf -dd
Les deux dernières lignes que vous verrez seront :
"ath0: Setup of interface done.
l2_packet_receive - recvfrom: Network is down"
Ne vous affolez pas, c'est réussi.
Tout wifi client pourra se connecter à votre Puppy access point.
Bonne nouvelle j'ai créé un script dans /usr/bin appelé "Wifi-AP-launch.sh"
Obviously you can run this script from an rxvt terminal, but better still, I have created a desktop launch-script called "Wifi-AP-launch". With ROX, go to /usr/bin and drag the icon for "Wifi-AP-launch" (not Wifi-AP-launch.sh") onto the desktop. This is ready to go, but it has a generic icon. To give it a nice icon, right-click it, select File 'Wifi-AP-launch' > Set Icon...
and this will present a window. Use ROX to drag /usr/local/lib/X11/pixmaps/Wifi-AP-48.png into the window.
UPDATE: just because your Puppy computer is now a wifi Access Point, don't assume it's acting as a router ... it's not. See my later post about router/server/network considerations -

"wlanconfig" is a wifi configuration utility unique to the old "ath_pci" wifi driver. This driver, and the associated wlanconfig, are no longer contained in modern Puppy versions.
Clearly, a more recent package is required ... and the necessary update is mentioned in the very first post in this thread -

Important Update Feb 2013:
This package updated for Slacko 5.4 here -
All wifi drivers are now supported, not just the ath_pci and hostap drivers.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2, 2011--The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) today announced the beginning of visual survey work to determine whether Asian longhorned beetle (ALB) has been effectively eradicated from New York County, N.Y.
APHIS and the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets (NYSDAM) will initiate a confirmation survey of the estimated 62,000 ALB host trees within the quarantined areas of New York County. The work is expected to continue for one year.
APHIS and NYSDAM will work with a contractor, Davey Tree Expert Company, to complete the work by performing tree climbing, bucket truck and ground-based inspections of publicly accessible trees. APHIS and NYSDAM inspectors will be conducting the inspection of privately owned, residential trees.
All contractor vehicles involved in the survey effort will have identifying signage and all inspectors, whether contractor or government, will be carrying official identification. The public can assist the eradication effort by allowing survey officials access to susceptible trees on public and private property to evaluate any signs of ALB infestation.
The ALB program is conducting this survey effort because it is required to confirm the eradication of the beetle from New York County. A confirmation of ALB eradication will lead to the removal of the county from quarantine regulation, and should result in lower costs associated with the handling and disposal of regulated host material by homeowners, landscapers, municipalities, nurseries and other green industry groups.
The ALB program is a cooperative effort among various federal, state and local agencies including, USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, Forest Service and Agricultural
Research Service; as well as the NYSDAM, New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation. APHIS and its cooperators undertake eradication by imposing quarantines, regulating the movement of ALB and ALB host material, conducting visual inspections, removing infested trees and chemically treating noninfested host trees as part of an integrated eradication strategy.
For more information regarding the survey work, call 1-718-820-1300. For information on the cooperative program in general, call in New York 1-866-265-0301 or 1-877-STOP-ALB or visit www.BeetleBusters.info for more information about ALB, including pictures and where to report a suspected beetle or suspected signs of infestation. For treatment maps, review the ALB website at www.aphis.usda.gov/plant_health/plant_pest_info/ asian_lhb/index.shtml and select "ALB Program Maps."

DOVER — Maple Suites is hosting a free pet estate planning seminar on Saturday, June 22 at 10:30 am at 30 Holiday Drive in Dover. The seminar will be conducted by Stephen Purdy, owner of Pet Passages and Attorney Alex Nossiff. The public is invited to attend.
The seminar will focus on advance planning of your estate to cover your pet and how to preplan to memorialize your pet, should something happen to you.
One in five pet owners legally outline their wishes if their animals outlive them. If you have no directive, your pet could end up in a shelter or even euthanized unless you have stipulated how you want your pet protected, should your pet outlive you.
Pet Passages was founded by Stephen Purdy when he realized there were no federal or state regulations or standards in place regarding pet loss services. He recognized that many pet owners sought the same level and care for their pets as they do for their human family members.
He and Attorney Alex Nossiff will discuss how to set up trust funds and directives for caring for your pet.
The seminar will begin at 10:30 am, but attendees who RSVP in advance, are invited to stay for dinner at Maple Suites immediately following the seminar at 11:30 am.
Please RSVP to 603-742-8820. If you have any question, please call Maple Suites at 603-742-8820.
Maple Suites will host a seminar on Saturday, June 29 at 10:30 am. The Alzheimer's Association will present "Driving – when it is time to give up the car keys". The seminar is especially geared for families and caregivers of those who are dealing with Alzheimer's or dementia.
Ideally families should talk openly about driving soon after a diagnosis of Alzheimer's. Making a decision about when it is time to stop driving can be difficult, but dealing with the issue early on can help ease the transition.
This seminar will help prepare you to make that important decision for a loved one and ease you through the transition process.
If you would like to attend the seminar, please RSVP to Maple Suites at 603-742-8820. Seminar attendees who RSVP in advance are invited to have lunch at 12:30 pm following the seminar at Maple Suites. Please contact Maple Suites with any questions at 603-742-8820.

Today I decided to spend a few hours searching on Google books for Benjamin Foss. The Internet address for Google books is http://books.google.com. I decided to just put the search term Benjamin Foss Machias Maine. It is amazing how many books were returned from the search.
This first hit I reviewed was a book published by the Maine Historical Society. The book is called Collections of the Maine Historical Society, Volume III. In a section of the book about the history of Scarborough the following is stated:
Benjamin Foss – removed with his family to Machias 1765. The descendants of another branch of this family are numerous in this town and vicinity.
The second hit that I reviewed was an article in The Maine Historical Magazine, Volume VIII. Within this volume there is a section called Notes about Machias that states:
Benjamin Foss, from Scarborough, 1765:
Married first, Sarah Getchell Nov. 1762, and second Hannah Miller prior to 1800; nineteen children, sixteen of whom had families.
On the third hit, I found conflicting information on Benjamin Foss's first marriage. In Volume IV of the Maine Historical and Genealogical Recorder there is a section for the Records of the Second Congregational Church in Scarborough, Maine. Marriages.
Records of the Second Congregational Church in Scarborough, Maine. Marriages.
Nov. 7, 1762 Benjamin Foss and Sarah Mitchel
The church records state that Benjamin Foss married Sarah Mitchel not Sarah Getchell in November of 1762. I am not sure how the name Sarah Getchell became associated to the marriage of Benjamin. It may be because Joseph Getchell is one of the original settlers of Machias and is also from Scarborough. An example of this association with Joseph Getchell is from the History of Cumberland Co., Maine. I found this book an Ancestry.com
In 1765 the following persons from Scarborough also joined the colony at Machias ; Morris O'Brien, and his two sons — Gideon and Jeremiah; Daniel Elliott, Joseph Holmes, Joseph and Ebenezer Libby, Benjamin Frost, Joseph Sevey, Joseph Munson, —- Balch, Ezekiel Foster, Joseph Getchell, and Benjamin Foss. Of the names upon the petition to whom the township of Machias was granted, in 1770, there appear no less than 54 from Scarborough.
In reviewing the Narrative of the town of Machias, which is also found on Google books, I find that it also states that Benjamin married Sarah Getchell. This inconsistency is probably recorded in all other materials that originate from Machias. The following is from the Narrative of the town of Machias.
Benjamin Foss first comer to Machias, m. Sarah Getchell; m. 2nd. Hannah Miller; children: Sally, Mary, Benjamin, Joseph, Eunice, Dorcas, Israel, Wm., Dennis, Mehitable, Hannah, Edward, Fanny, Margaret, Betsey, Stephen, Louisa, Luther, Allen.
That is all the time I have for research this week. Below is a listing with links of the books I referenced in this article.

I think it might be here! It got up to about 70 degrees today. Watch, I probably just jinx'd it.
Security: You're doing it wrong! Actually, there are some locks in the door as well, so these chintzy padlocks aren't too helpful anyway. They've been like this for days, though.
87th St. Bridge
Our praise team had a BBQ at The Commons (the closest thing we have to a fellowship hall, it's a refurbished house). We played a game I'd never before seen. My friends tell me it's "Hillbilly Golf". The guy throwing is our new associate pastor, Steve. He was a year ahead of me in high school. We were in choir and a few other extracirricular groups together.
I suck at Hillbilly Golf.
This is Peanut, my pastor's family dog. Peanut is not amused that we're indoors munching on Steve's smoked BBQ brisket while he's outside.

Renovating your home is considerably different than building a new home.
With a renovation, your home becomes the work site. If you can't move out while the work is being done, prepare yourself: living with the project from start to finish can take its toll on you and your family.
Once construction begins, you'll long for simple pleasures like a dust-free home or a fully functioning kitchen. While a makeshift kitchen in your living room doesn't sound so bad at first, it will get old -really quickly.
If you're working with a renovator, here are five tips to help you stay sane during the process:
- Establish clear lines of communication
Having open communication with your renovator is key. Determine who you and your renovator should contact for daily decisions or an after-hours emergency. For example, your contact may be the lead carpenter for the job, while the renovator's contact could be your spouse. Designate a backup for each contact person to assure continuity in anyone's absence.
Speak up: If you are uncertain about any aspect of the project, be sure to let the contact person know.
- Call a pre-construction meeting
One way to ensure the success of your project is to plan for, and participate in, a pre-construction meeting. This allows your renovator to clarify procedures and explain how the job will progress. It also offers both you and your renovator an opportunity to prepare for these issues that may arise later.
Some of the issues to cover: Will you allow your renovator to place a company sign on your property? (Remember that, in addition to being a marketing tool, signs help contractors and suppliers locate your home.)
What areas of your home will be off limits to workers? Does your house have an alarm system? Will workers need a key or will someone always be there?
How will you ensure your children and pets stay out of the workspace?
Does the renovator anticipate any interruptions of utilities during the project? If so, when and for how long? At certain stages, the project may affect basic household necessities like water and electricity. Will you need to vacate the house at any time?
Establish guidelines for the renovation crew working on the project: Hours of work, impact on neighbours, and parking and bathroom facilities are all considerations.
- Prevent renovation angst
Keep your eye on the prize and remind yourself why you're renovating. In the house, designate a safe haven where you can escape the chaos and commotion.
- Dampen the dust
A renovation is a dust storm, so try to keep up with it even if it seems like a losing battle. It helps to declutter and remove, or cover with plastic, anything that might get damaged by the dust.
It also helps to seal off doorways and stairs and turn off central air or heating when workers are sanding. While you're at it, stock up on extra furnace filters so that you can change them often.
- Celebrate the small stuff
Whether you're doing a full-scale renovation or a single room, you will see progress along the way, so celebrate it.
As writer Chantal Eustace of Tsawwassen said of her renovation: "When a window is installed, admire it. Don't focus on the exposed insulation beneath it or the unfinished flooring below. Embrace the improvements, one nail at a time."
That's good advice. Your sanity will remain almost in tact if you maintain a sense of humour and remember that certain things are out of your control.
Looking for some expert advice on your home renovation? Send your question to email@example.com and it may be answered in an upcoming Hammer and Nail.

2 ounce 2015 Hawksbill Skildpadde sølvmønt
This unusual coin is considered a Piedfort, meaning that it is twice the weight and twice the thickness of the 1 oz Turtle while retaining the same diameter.
The Hawksbill turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata bissa) is one of two main turtle species of the South Pacific. Although they have a wide distribution throughout the world's tropical regions, Hawksbill Turtles are considered critically endangered due to human fishing practices. They grow up to a metre in length and a weight of 80 kg, although the heaviest on record weighed 127 kg.
The reverse features a Hawksbill Turtle with a stylized shell pattern swimming through the waters of the Pacific Ocean along with an engraved heading and the coin's metal quality and weight.
This coin now features radial lines on both sides as a security feature.
In multiples of 10 these coins will ship in a tube, and multiples of 200 will ship in a monster box. The coin you receive may be tarnished or in used condition.

Cereal Eats: Kellogg's Krave Comes to the U.S.
Breakfastime musings about cereal.
New year, new cereals, who knew? I'm a little surprised at myself for letting some cereal varieties slip by unnoticed. It's because before I started writing this column, I was constantly battling my cereal obsession. I was unable to keep even the healthy ones in the house, for obvious box-lasting-one-night-only reasons, and tried to remind myself constantly that those sugary little clusters and nuggets are nothing but empty calories and cavities.
But now that I'm in the business of cereal (I take this column VERY seriously) I have free license to embrace my obsession. In fact I HAVE to, and all the love I've been holding in check is spilling forth as freely as the gallons of icy cold skim.
So, let's welcome another new friend, shall we?
Krave, much like Crunchy Nut, is fresh off the boat from across the pond. It was introduced in the UK in 2010 in six varieties: Chocolate Hazelnut, Milk Chocolate, Totally Chocolatey, Chocolate Caramel, Chocolate, Double Chocolate. Just this month it was released in the U.S., but in just two flavors: Chocolate and Double Chocolate.
The boxes are very new and contemporary looking, with sharp clean colors. Part of it's raised and textured. Feels pretty darn cool to the touch. I see they are taking a page from new Cinnamon Toast Crunch school of graphics, with "edgy" animated characters that border on creepy, but I guess that's what the kids like these days. It is described as crispy multi-grain cereal on the outside smooth chocolate inside.
So basically, it's another cereal trying to be as close to cookies as possible.
I was extremely wary at first after experiences with other cereals of this nature, but I decided to dive in big-handful-first into the Double Chocolate flavor.
I ate about five or six pieces at once and was pleasantly surprised with the chocolate flavor and creamy texture. I wouldn't say a bountiful filling bursts forth from the little pillow-like nuggets, but with a large enough bite you are getting a considerable amount of chocolate filling. The cereal part has an interested aerated texture that sticks to your teeth in an unpleasant way, when dry, but has good chocolate flavor comparable to Cocoa Puffs.
When poured in a bowl with milk, the texture becomes downright addictive, the milk causing the walls of the little pillows to soften and collapse in a delightful way. The flavor gains a hint of health food chocolate on the finish (we've been wine tasting in the office—am I sounding too wine-talky?).
Overall, a solid cereal. I'm still warming up to it, not necessarily kraving it yet, but solid.
The Simply Chocolate version didn't quite translate for me. I found its blonde, multigrain body to taste oddly of fruit, which only increased in milk. I'd opt for Double Chocolate, if the mood, or krave strikes.
Sidenote: does this cereal remind anyone else of Hidden Treasures? Of the many discontinued cereals, Hidden Treasures haunts most of all. It wasn't even that good, it was so oddly sweet and fruity and weird but for some reason its strange glowing middle drew me in a way I can't describe. It was unavailable by 1995 and I am fairly certain I will never taste it again, but it was a pioneer in the filled of "filled" cereals. And for that, I salute. Krave should too.
Has anyone else tried Krave? Thoughts? Anyone else miss Hidden Treasures?
